Purple, but nowhere near pastel. #7e44b5 is a saturated, cool violet with enough depth to hold white text at about 6.2:1 contrast, which clears WCAG AA for body copy. That makes it a solid pick for buttons and highlights rather than full backgrounds, where it can overpower a layout. Muted gold and deep teal keep it looking rich instead of loud.
